Stade Français Paris set off on their Heineken Cup mission in Brussels on Saturday with England international flanker James Haskell adamant they can make amends for their 23-13 Round defeat by Ulster Rugby at Ravenhill.
The 2005 Heineken Cup finalists saw their winning run come to a halt in Belfast and now the tournament will reach yet another new part of Europe when the Round 4 return match is played in the King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels.
It makes Belgium the 10th country - and the 50,024-seater national arena the 89th stadium - to have staged Heineken Cup action.
"If anything, this defeat will give the players an added urgency and desire to make sure that we don't lose in Brussels," said Haskell. Now we know we've got to go to Brussels and put on a performance.
"As a team, we're used to playing games at the Stade de France but it doesn't matter where we play. It's about turning up and playing.
"We've got to make sure that when we go to Brussels, starting on Wednesday, we go there with all guns blazing because we can't afford to give any more momentum away.
"And it's brilliant that we get to play them again next week. That's the beauty of rugby and professional sport. Every week you have another game until the season ends - and it's even better if you get to play the opposition that you lost to the week before on the following weekend.
"We'll look forward to that. That'll certainly be a big period of reflection when we watch the video because it wasn't a good performance at all from us.
"In modern rugby at the moment, you finish one game, address the issues, refocus and you go again. We've got a lot to work on, but the beauty of the team is that we have the players who can turn things around. When we walked that try in at the end, I know Ulster were tired and they sort of had the game in the bag, but we showed that we have the ability to do that.
"It's about retaining the ball. You can't play going backwards or with people making individual errors. We need to improve our ball retention - it's as simple as that. I don't know what the stat is for the amount of turnovers we gave away, but it was pretty horrendous. Half of them probably weren't even forced.
"They were from people knocking the ball out of hands or knocking the ball on and you can't build any momentum if you're team's getting a lot of slow ball or if you're losing the ball every time you go into contact."
